"The Prestige"

 hello moviebuffs,

I got up...got dressed...ate breakfast...sat on the couch...switched on the TV...got connected to WiFi...amazon prime...searching...searching more..."The Prestige"...for those of you who have not heard this name before....

Have you ever felt that feeling wherein you were instantly eager to watch the movie as soon as you watched its trailer but then as you watched the movie,you came to the realization that the movie itself wasn't as amazing as the trailer.....yes i know how awful that feels. but do not worry ladies and gentleman because this movie here( the prestige) is wonderful on its own and more intriguing than the trailer itself.

This impeccable movie with its non linear storytelling leaves you gasping at its ingenious story line and acting.Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale have played out their part with brilliance intensifying their rivalry  which transforms into this detrimental obsession with brutal sacrifices and terrible consequences. The two actors continue growing increasingly passionate about  sabotaging each other and establishing their fame as magicians. It is beautiful to see how the story takes an unpredictable turn every time you think you know what is coming.The non linear storytelling by Christopher Nolan plays and puzzles your brain, in a 'not so subtle' way, but yet you find yourself understanding the plot perfectly well.The protagonists may be magicians but the true magic lies in the screenplay that intrigues you...to keep watching...to keep waiting for more such unfathomable bolts from the blue.

Whether you are bored or just in search of a good movie...I recommend you to watch it because it truly is a masterpiece worth watching(more than one time).

thank you.
